On 108:1–2
إِنَّا أَعْطَيْنَاكَ الْكَوْثَر﴿٢﴾فَصَلِّ لِرَبِّكَ وَانْحَرْ
108:1-2 Prophet (pbuh), and through him to every believing man and woman. Two ways are pointed out in this chapter as to how to attain the abundance of good - Praying to Allâh and making sacrifice or devoting one’s life to the good of humanity. These are the ways of communion with Allâh, which raises in our hearts the highest aspirations and makes us drink deep at the fountain of Kauthar. A saint has said, “Giving thanks for abundance is sweeter than the abundance itself: Should one who is absorbed with the Generous One be distracted by the Gift? Thankfulness is the soul of beneficence, for thankfulness brings to a place where the Beloved lives, thankfulness brings alertness. Hunt for bounty with the net of gratitude!”
